Chapter 23: The Hunter Becomes The Hunted!

I stealthily walk behind the large pine trees, making sure to not even breath, as I glance at the three wolves sniffing around, walking but a few meters away from me.

Now that I have evolved, I should be able to fight and kill these ice wolves… Right?

Man, I don't want to get overconfident though…

I have good defenses now. Well, the defense stat doesn't exist for some reason, but I believe that my Vitality also kind of counts as my defense.

I check these wolves' stats, and they have slightly higher strength than me and they are not even Middle Stage! And their Dexterity is also higher than mine, meaning they're pretty swift and fast.

However, the other stats are lower than mine…

But I don't have to get too trustful with the System either, I remember that the wolves kept attacking for some time even when their HP was down to zero, meaning that nothing really is like a game, but I see it as one.

It is not completely correct… Perhaps with me, it might be, but not with the rest.

I lack calories, I have been trying to eat the pinewood and the leaves, they taste horrible, and barely gave any calories.

I am low on them, and that's what fuels Immortal Body's super regeneration after all.

I have to… strike one of them, eat a large piece of their flesh, and then go for the rest.

I will put faith into my new scales and the crystals that cover my body for my defense, but I will also attack with my claws and bites.

And yeah, my magic, obviously.

In fact, I was planning on screwing them over with Magic alone.

If that doesn't work, I can always go physical.

My Mana is now at 200, my Magic Stat is also pretty high at 65, which means I can deal way more magic damage than before.

I haven't trained magic though, which I am planning on doing next after I secure a sizable meal for at least a day or two.

I am sure that now with my current Mana, I should be able to do more than just knives.

But Knives are still pretty cheap, and so are the little gusts of wind that I use to make them fly into the air.

Oh, maybe with enough training I could even fly into the air? I don't even need wings then!

But enough planning, all of this fast-talk is only possible thanks to my High-speed Though Processing, the wolves had barely moved since I spotted them.

I infuse Mana into Camouflage and begin to lurk around, closer and closer.

As I covered myself on snow and the pine's scent, the wolves have a hard time detecting my scent as long as I hold my breath.

Surprisingly enough I think I can hold it for a few minutes. Being a dragon really brings a lot of super abilities without them even being Skills in the System.

The wolves slowly advance, until one suddenly twitch his ears, it heard me.

It quickly glares where I was a second after, as I hid beneath a large and old pine tree.

That was close.

The wolf seems to discard it quickly after and keeps walking around.

This is my chance.

I quickly move towards the closest wolf I have, to my right, who is giving me his back, to boot!

Sorry, not sorry!

I immediately conjure four Ice Knives and then the gusts of wind right after!

The knives quickly impact the wolf's back as it groans in agony and surprise, one of the knives reaches his head, but it's barely still alive!

I quickly go for the kill before the other two come here!

The pained wolf finally gets to see the one that was lurking behind it, me! I can see the fear growing in his eyes, I am a bit taller than him, even!

I enhance my muscles with mana a little bit and enhance my speed, reaching to it before it could dart away from me, and using my claws, I slash through its face and eyes.

Slash! Slash!

"GRROOWL!"

The wolf groans in agony and falls over the ground!

I think I broke his skull because it is now dead.

But it's not over yet!

"Graaaawr!"

"Awooo!"

The two wolves finally reached the place where their companion gave its last breath, as they see his corpse lying motionlessly over the bloodstained snow.

The two roars at me with enormous anger, these wolves are incredibly vengeful, even when they realized that my presence was a bit greater than them on strength!

Though I wonder why these wolves are not Middle Stage, I mean I got to the middle stage after eating a few rabbits and wolves, why can't they?

Do they not eat the mana cores? Maybe only I can actually digest them through Immortal Body?

That would explain my rapid growth…

Anyways, I quickly jump away from their charge and quickly generate more Ice Knives.

Five more Ice Knives fly towards one of them, the wolf at the left, the nearest to me, but only three Ice knives reach the wolf's back, piercing through its flesh.

The wolf groans in pain but it is still fine, and darts away from my claws, as I was aiming to finish him off by slashing him with my strength.

"GRAAWR!"

The wolf I was ignoring suddenly jumps over my back, as he begins to bite me!

His fangs begin to faintly pierce through my flesh, but he has a lot of a hard time getting any substantial damage aside from a few piercing wounds that are too small for me to care!

Yeah, maybe I would be screaming in pain before, but I am so used to the pain now that I don't really care.

The wolf begins to scratch and slash my back, the crystals make a wonderful work at defending me, he can only get so far through my metallic dragon scales, so I shake him off my back with a strong gust of winds and then aim at the weakened wolf.

The wolf is lethargically moving around while growling, it begins to create ice spikes to attack me, but those are ineffective against my Ice Absorption!

I pounce towards it and to not waste more mana, I use my jaws to grasp the wolf's neck, the bitter taste of its fur fills my mouth, and by exerting all the force I got, I crush his neck!

"Grrryyaaarr…!"

CRACK!

The cracking sound runs through my spine, making me feel a bit of goosebump, I have really become quite merciless.

I leave the wolf's corpse resting over the ground as I glance at the last one.

If I were you, I would be running away for my life bud.

However, he seems oddly attached to his companions, and roars furiously towards me, enhancing his body with mana and then pouncing towards me, aiming at my head!

Bad move.

I generate a longer-than-usual Ice Knife, which resembles an Ice Blade and using my good aim, I launch it directly into the wolf's throat!

"GRRAAAAKKHH…!"

The wolf immediately chokes with the blade piercing its throat and falls directly into the snow, failing its trajectory with ease.

It's dead.

Damn, talk about progression, I literally swoop the floor with these guys.
